Turtle Bay Oxford

In the heart of Oxford City Centre, Turtle Bay Oxford channels the vibrancy of the Caribbean into a cosy hideaway. The island-inspired setting is made for casual dining and lively drinks alike, promising an easy-going escape in the middle of the city.

The menu travels through big flavours and feel-good favourites: nibble on jerk sausage or crispy channa before diving into sweetcorn fritters brightened with mango mole or Trini doubles layered with curried chickpeas and a snap of pickled cucumber. From the jerk pit comes chicken served with a line-up of sauces, while the Carib steak arrives with Trini-chutney. On the side, spiced fries keep things punchy, and lighter options range from a Buddha bowl to an avocado and mango salad.

The bar leans tropical, shaking up Koko Colada, Jamaican Mule and a colourful roll-call of cocktails, with Zeros for those going alcohol-free. A festive energy runs through the space, from bottomless brunch to daily two-for-one cocktails and a variety of events. Gather the crew, settle in, and let Oxford meet island time.
